Silver Hawk 8.5/10 Dear God, I love this movie. It's got a silly plot and is goofy as hell, but you can tell everyone had a blast working on it and it doesn't try to take itself seriously. The whole movie has this vibe of "Yes, we know this is a goofy Kung Fu film. Yes, we know the plot is silly, but that's the fun, so just enjoy the ride".

It helps that Michelle Yeoh is the star of the whole thing and she always looks like she's having a blast in whatever movie she's shooting. Combine that with fantastic fight choreography, good cinematography and you get the reasons why I love Silver Hawk. It's not as good as Zebraman, but damn, it's pretty close.

Trusting a 'loth is a lot like keeping a snake for a pet. It's not a matter of 'if' you're going to be bitten, but a matter of 'when'.
